Waggon Road Cemetery contains the graves of 195 soldiers from the United Kingdom, of whom 36 are unknown.

Forty nine of the graves belong to the 11th (Lonsdale) Battalion of the Border Regiment who attacked on the Ancre both in July and November 1916.

Waggon Road Cemetery was made by the V Corps and originally known as V Corps Cemetery No.10.
